Honestly, I thought it was a pretty standard bourbon barrel aged stout. Really good but nothing that stood out to me comparatively.

I almost cracked the PM instead, but Im still sitting on both those. I think my girlfriend will like the BCBCS so I'm waiting for a good time for that.

Vikings was really good, especially if you're any kind of history nerd. I got hooked immediately and so did my girl. It's a great story with great production (MGM). Season 2 isn't till 2014 so you can hold off on watching though. It is worth it though, imo.

I've been thinking about this, and I think I know what was missing (for me) with it. It was a great beer, loved the bourbon, loved the smell, taste, etc. Where it lacked for me was it was a bit thin in the mouth. It didn't have that rich, silky feel I'm used to. Then again, I think CCB has spoiled me. But I feel like that's what was missing for me. Outside if that richness, it was a great beer for me.
